- 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 0.5 tsp salt

Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.

Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat and cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

Pour the lemony dressing over the hot potatoes and gently toss to coat evenly.
